Watching The Queen

I remember the Queen coming to Prescot and waiting opposite the council offices to see her go past. We all had little flags. We waited for a long time then the car was spotted in the distance. We raised our flags and whoosh! She had gone past before we had time to wave them. I can remember being disapointed. I remember the Salvation Army place. On Sunday nights in summer we used to go out and watch their open air services. I remember Mrs Bamforth and also Miss Batton and Miss Chataway. Audrey
